It might surprise you if I tell you that you can now create an object in 3d with a PEN!!!!

Wondering how??

Yes, there is a new technology on the market, and people are going crazy over it.

You might be an artist or some other person. It doesn’t matter.[This is not an offense to you.]

WHAT??

Because with the help of 3d pen you are going to amaze people around you. You can enhance your creativity to a new level. In this article, I am going to show the best list of the 3d pen in 2018.

So how to find a best among 100s of 3d pens?

Still wondering about which 3d pens to buy?

Well, don’t worry!! You have landed on the right page.

I am going to review about the best 3d pens which are available in the market right now!!!

I bet you it is going to be the best buyers guide on the internet.

It can be a very hectic process for you to find the best 3d pen if you are not much experienced with it.

So, I have brought down a great list of best 10 3d pens which clearly stands out from the others in the market. I will tell each 3d pen first with a short intro and then tell about their features. It will not only give you a better idea of these modern pens but also present you a better view of buying the product. These are the best-tested reviews for 3d pens in 2018.

[cmtoc_table_of_contents]

Below I have mentioned all the pens which I am going to review in this article. If you want to buy directly then just click on the check price link.

Our first choice for this list is Scribbler V3. It is a renovated version of its ancestor Scribbler Pen series. This pen claims to be the world’s first 3d pen. Till now 3 version of scribbler has already come. It has actually made a significant buzz in the market because of its quality. Apart from providing excellent service quality, it has an impressive hardware build design. You will certainly in love with its design and quality. It provides an easy way of making 3d objects.

Scribbler 3d pen comes with various color options to choose from. You can also use filaments of different colors with this 3d pen. The available colors are Blue, Purple, Red, Green, White (Umm. How do I suppose to show you that!! text background is white of course) and Yellow. So not only the quality it also provides you with various color options to enhance your artistic skills.

Now I would like to talk about the test which we performed for Scribbler V3.

TESTING

Testing revealed that it is very feather-weight. One can easily operate a pen. You also don’t need to worry about changing the filament. Its designer team has designed it in a way that even a newbie person can use and operate it without much hustle.

Being the first 3d pen in the world, Scribbler has really enhanced its quality over the years. During our test, we did not find any much concern issue. It passed out all the test that we performed on it.

Okay!! I will be more honest with you. If you are a person who loves to draw in the traditional way then it will take time for you to adjust to the environment. This is not a particular issue because all 3d pens come with a learning curve.

Rest I can assure you, this is going to be one of the best 3d pens you will ever buy.

POSITIVE

An unbelievable weight of just 2.6oz.

Highly responsive and easy to use on any surface.

It will give status of the device with OLED screen. That makes it highly user friendly device.

NEGATIVE

As I told you earlier it might feel cumbersome and somewhat inconvenient to the traditional artists.

This is the biggest number of filament we received for any unit. Not only with the quantity, but also is able to amaze us with its high-quality look. I want you to clear the misconception if you are having about 3Doodler 3d pen, that it is nowhere similar to the 3Doodler 3d printer. 3doodler 3d pen is also suited for adults.

As we know 3Doodler is the first 3d printer in the world. But here we are talking about 3Doodler 3d printing pen only.

If I talk about its design then it is similar to the quality of big giant lix pen which I have already reviewed earlier in this post.

To my surprise, it was not by mistake. It indeed comes with 50 plastic filaments.

The quality of these filaments is also of top notch. They certainly complement this top 3d pen. They are quite easy to replace and the filament doesn’t get clogged easily. Before this post, if you were wondering about what is the best 3d pen, then this is your answer. Although the price is comparatively more than others quality always comes with a price.

TESTING

During our testing, we found that 3Doodler pass all the tests with quite ease. We tried to work with this pen on different surfaces and found quite successful results. If you are a newbie with these pens then it may take some time for you to get experienced with this 3d pen.

If you have read about 3d pens before then you must have heard about 3doodler vs scribbler & 3Doodler vs Creopop. Well, we think all are great pens. It totally depends on the person’s need. 3doodler is good in many aspects, we can say but others are not behind.

However, if you are a veteran artist and have a handful of experience then it should not be a big deal for you.

To be honest, we at mybestreviewss did not find any significant downside of this product.

POSITIVE

A unique innovative hardware design.

It comes with 50 plastic filaments. This is the highest number of filament we have received with any unit.

Now we have come to our 4th on the 3d pen comparison list. Earlier I have reviewed about 3Doodler version 1.0. Now, this is a successor to that.

This version of 3Doodler has made some significant improvement over the previous version. The look has been redesigned and looks quite sophisticated.

This version also comes with 50 plastic filaments. That’s really great things by the company for its customers.

However, you can buy filament anytime if you want. In the 50 plastic filaments, you will find 25 of type ABS plastic and remaining 25 are of type PLA.

Here is an introductory official video about 3Doodler

TESTING

Now let’s talk about the testing part this unit. This 3d pen outrank all the record set by its predecessor 3Doodler. It remarkably clear all the test that we performed. We didn’t experience any issue of clogging or too much heating with it. 3Doodler 2.0 is really a great enhancement over the previous version. From the look to performance, 3Doodler team has taken care of everything.

If you are looking for a stylish and highly useful 3d printing pen then this is your top choice.

POSITIVE

Very easy to use i.e. user-friendly.

Hardware design has been largely improved.

50 filament are definitely one of the great treat to buy.

NEGATIVE

We are not satisfied with the tip of this 3d printing pen.

Although in our testing we didn’t find any noteworthy defection, but my friends were having some issue with this pen.

7 TECH 3D printing pen is another big name in this industry. Seeing the heavier and bulkier nature of 3d pens here and there, the 7TECH team came up with the concept of user-friendly and easy to use the 3d pen. It works in the silent mode and doesn’t create any kind of noise while working. This also comes with a number of advanced features that makes it stand out from the other Let’s dig more info about this.

If you are 3d pen users then obviously you would like to work for longer to make perfect objects. Many of its competent pens lack in this sector.

The 7tech pen comes with the best thermal control. Another advanced feature is that it can also notify you if there is any stoppage problem in the filament with its LED.

Is this enough?

If yes then its fine otherwise here is another excellent feature.

After knowing this feature, I bet you that you cannot resist yourself for buying

Don’t believe me?

Suppose if you are a newbie to this technology. So in most of the cases, you will have comparatively slow drawing speed than the old fellows. So you will find it hard to draw the object in the beginning. So here what can you do, just try to make a hold on its operating speed for drawing?

Voila!!!

Is not it amazing?

It will not only give you better control over drawing 3d objects but also give you better control over the filament consumption.

Hmmm… That was a deep man.

Now I would stop praising it and shift your focus onto the pitfalls of this 3-dimensional pen.

TESTING

As I told you earlier, it has extrusion control mechanism. It is fine if you are working at moderate speed, but high-speed mode can sometimes have bad experiences. The operating temperature is directly proportional to the melting rate of the filament.

When you are in the high-speed mode, then you will obviously need filament at a very faster speed. It sometimes can raise operating temperature to high. You should take care of your skin while working in a high-speed mode.

Now another thing is that this pen doesn’t come with enough filament. But apparently, you can buy it from the store easily. I think this should not be a big problem for you.

Overall 7 TECH 3D Printing Pen is one of the awesome pen available. Although this pen has downside extrusion control feature which someway overcomes its pitfall. Moreover, it depends on person to person, what they want.

I would go for 7 TECH 3D if I am somewhat familiar with the technology.

Here is the quick snapshot of all pros & cons, I just discussed with you.

POSITIVE

This pen is equally good for both experienced and the newbie artists.

It is the device which you can comfortably hold without any hiccups.

It has an advanced unclogging system. This is a feature which can stop filament to clog down after cooling down.

It has an aluminum cover to protect your finger from the heated nozzle.

This comes with full 1 year warranty. So you can obviously can give at least a try to it.

NEGATIVE

In some extreme cases its operating temperature can go beyond bearable temperature.

Here comes another big giant from the 3d printing world. The Ccbetter intelligent pen is the same 3d pen which is also known as a JoyLuxy intelligent 3-D pen. This intelligent pen is one of the best in the industry. Great thing is that we were fortunate enough to get a review unit. This has all the features that an awesome 3D pen should have.

Okay. Now let’s have a look at the CCbetter Intelligent 3D pen from Joyluxy.

When you open the packed sleek box of CCbetter, then you will find that it is similar in size to your smartphone. Inside the box, I can see a power brick for power supply. Other then the power brick there are two supplied PLA filaments.

Don’t worry about the filaments.

You can buy one another time when you need to. In our received box Joyluxy was kind enough to include a stand so that I can put it there whenever it is not in use. One thing you will notice that it is equally good for the newbie as well as the veteran artists.

TESTING

In our testing CCbetter performed quite remarkably.

We try to use it on the different surface which can be sensitive to 3d pen performance.

To our surprise, it performed quite well in all the tests and gave brilliant results.

There is status OLED status indicator which tells you the status of the filament. With OLED, you can quickly know when its filament is good heated and ready. It is a really good feature because we don’t have to shoot the arrow in the dark.

Now let’s have a look at the other side of the coin.

In our testing, we felt that this 3d pen needs some instruction before use. So our team did a good research before using it. So I would like Joyluxy to have more instruction inside the packed box.

I hesitate to say the downside of Joyluxy because it is actually not the one. If I talk about performance then it surpassed all the target we have set for it, in every test.

If you are a person who is looking for great quality at an affordable price then this is the must have a 3d pen for you.

POSITIVE

Its elegant design a certainly a great please for everybody eyes.

In our opinion, this is the most stylish pen currently available in the market.

The pen holder is an added advantage. You will not see this option with most of the other pens.

It takes less technical knowledge to fix it up this pen in case of any tangible problem.

The 5th pen in our list is the Lay3r 3d pen. I and my team were having a really tough time to agree on the point that whether we should test Lay3r or not. Only 2 members of our team were keen on testing this item. Finally, they were able to convince us.

And I thought there is no much harm in giving it a try.

When we tested Lay3r, we were all shell shocked!!!

It reminds us of an old saying that says.

NEVER EVER JUDGE A BOOK BY ITS COVER.

Now I can only say this::: This is a fantastic product.

Okay. Now I will no longer want you all to keep in a surprise. Let’s dig more details about this amazing (really!!!) product.

It is different from the other product which we have reviewed in this series. It is oddly large.

But wait!!!

Don’t just walk away from this product because so were we. Opposed to its big size, it is magnificent in handling and not as heavy as it seems. You can easily use the Lay3r 3d pen without any hassle.

Now here comes a unique advantage over most of the 3d pens available in the market. This is the main reason why I was ready to include the Lay3r 3d pen in this post. This is the best 3d pen for kids in the market currently.

Even if you are of 12 years, then you can also use the Lay3r 3d pen without making any serious error.

This 3d pen is suitable for people of all ages.

You can be a new coming artist or a veteran artist. It doesn’t matter. The handling of this 3d pen is so easy that anyone can easily handle this 3d pen. You don’t require special skill to handle (Now you will agree with me).

Last but not the least feature.

TESTING

It has an inbuilt fan which keeps Lay3r 3d pen cool from heating. So you can operate it easily even after working for a longer time. Okay, this is the last one. Kindly bear with me. It is really worth to know about it.

YOU WILL directly buy it after knowing this feature.

The lay3r 3d pen comes with automatic shutdown feature. If you are not working then it will shut down itself. This is a really phenomenal feature which really strikes us to review it.

If I talk about the less good side of this then I can only say that, it is slightly bulkier in look than other. But again because it has an inbuilt fan in it, I can understand and take slightly big size.

Overall Lay3r is one of the best in demand 3d pen available in the market. It is worth of every penny.

POSITIVE

Highly user-friendly and Easy to use

A number of advanced features.

Inbuilt fan is an added advantage

It comes with one year full warranty

NEGATIVE

Although inbuilt fan is a nice innovative feature but it also slightly increases its size.

Genesis 3d printing pen is another great name in the industry. The same company Lasso Labs that made Genesis is also popular for making great 3d printers. Now Lasso labs have launched its first ever 3d pen named as Genesis.

So let’s see how it stands out from the crowd.

Genesis 3D pen has a great design which is really eyeing pleasing. It doesn’t have a tag like the smallest 3d pen as Lix 3D printing pen have but in terms of providing quality, it is not a single penny behind. Genesis 3d pen has different color options to choose from. We got our hands on its black unit.

TESTING

During our test Genesis 3D pen managed to perform outstandingly in all the tests we performed in it. It also passed the test for smoothness, filament stuck situation (which we did not experience any.), and heating test.

One thing is quite noticeable about this is that it doesn’t get high temperature rapidly. This is the sector where most of the 3d pens fail to deliver good performance. But this is not the case with Genesis. It comes with the 5 filaments with the box itself.

However, if things got to end up then you can always purchase the separate filament separately.

Genesis 3d pen is highly user-friendly. You don’t require much knowledge of using it.

We weren’t able to find any pitfalls in this 3 dimensional object drawing pen.

This is one of the 3d pen which is able to perform above average in most of our tests. It has really impressed with its great performance.

POSITIVE

Highly User friendly. Anybody can use it without needing much knowledge.

It can use various type of plastic as the filament.

Hardware design is eye pleasing.

It comes with warranty options. However, we were unable to find the exact period for it.

Don’t think that if it comes with low price then it cannot give good performance. We tested it on every possible surface. It is especially recommended for kids.

So to be honest, if you are looking for a professional project then you should buy another pen apart from this one. Glyby is not certainly a 3d magic pen for professionals. This pen is good for kids only. Glyby has kept many things in mind while designing it for the kids.

However, I would still recommend parent provision for children.

It is really a great 3d printing pen designed for kids. At its price, you cannot complain of more. It has all the features to keep the children busy for a long time.This 3d printing pen will help your kid to develop their creative mind and will open new horizon.

So, at the end I would like to say, if you are looking to buy 3d pens for your kids then this you should definitely opt for this.

Lix 3d smartpen took the whole world by a storm when it announced the world’s smallest 3d pen ever made. Not only artists but also critics have a high praise for its quality and easiness to use. Lix marketed its product through Kickstarter campaign and raised more than £731,690. Initially, it was not available for consumers to buy but now it is available to purchase. You can order it now.

We at MyBestReviewss tried to have one Lix 3d pen recently for its review. We are glad that company accepted our request for a review unit of Lix.

Maybe after seeing our previous work??

Or maybe seeing our dedicated review team.

You never know, Nevertheless cheers for it to the Lix.

Okay!! Now let me get you a feel of it. It is also known as a manual micro 3d printer pen .

TESTING

As I told you above, Lix 3D pen is world’s smallest 3d pen. Now coming to our testing, we didn’t find any issue with the pen. It has passed all the tests we performed with flying colors. Our 3d pen tests include using it in a dark environment, using it in completely pin drop silent environment and many other.

Pin drop silent environment testing is very much useful.

Because many of the 3d pens available in the market get fail in this test. It has really surprised us by going through every test we performed, successfully. It worked like a charm on all the surfaces, we tested.

I would also like to have your attention on its hardware design. I must say, it is one of the best 3d pen design ever made in the history. Thanks to the designer team of lix .

There is a big difference between the lix and most of the other 3d pen available in the market. Unlike the other 3d pens it comes with an option to charge via a USB cable. Most of the 3d pens need power through a power brick. This power brick takes electricity from an outlet. But if you go for Lix, you don’t have to plug into outlet every time.

A USB cable can charge it.

Now that’s really a monstrous difference!!!

You can even use a Power Bank to charge it. That makes it usable even if you are out of electricity.

Is not it awesome??

How can you use Lix 3d perfectly?

You don’t need to train yourself to use Lix 3d pen.

Everything is so user-friendly that from the first day itself you will fall in love with it.

It will take a couple of minutes to heat up. There are LED lights on it which tell you when it’s got the full temperature. Then you can insert the plastic material or thin filament in the back end.

The tiny hole for inserting thin filament is located next to the power port. So, I guess you will not have any difficulty finding in that.

Should I talk about the cons of lix now?

During our testing, we didn’t find any flaws in it. Bottom-up to Lix 😛

However some people have recently complained about lix pen jammed, so make sure to check everything before buying. But I would say, lix pen can give you a real shape to your 3d printing pen ideas.

So if you are looking for a 3d pen in the market which is good in quality and also the smallest then Lix 3d pens is your choice.

POSITIVE

Very light in weight and User-friendly

Good hardware quality and design.

Ability to heat up and cool down is absolutely great. You don’t need to wait more than a couple of minutes to heat it up.

Buyer’s Guide for a 3d pen

In this buyers guide section, I will introduce you to the functioning and some other applications of these pens.

But wait!!!
Before that let me give you a short description of what actually a 3d pen technology is?
Also How you can make the 3d object with a pen?

What the heck is a 3D pen?

A 3d pen is similar in look with a regular pen or pencil. However, it uses plastic rather than using customary lead or ink.

It uses plastic to draw objects.

You heard it!!

Is not it weird?

I think so, but that’s how a 3d pen works for drawing 3d objects.

Now if you are hearing this for the first time then you might be wondering whether it would be too difficult to use a 3d pen? (I was also: P)

But to your surprise, it is not the case.

You can use these pens with a lot of ease. There is not much of rocket science behind this.

Of course, you need to hold it just like a traditional pen or pencil you do, and that’s all.

Because the 3d pen is all about creativity and making application with it.

What Can You Do With a 3D pen?

These pens are useful to you in thousands of ways.

Let me talk all things one by one.

THINGS YOU CAN DO WITH A 3D PEN

First, it lets you draw efficiently with plastic. You can enable plastic to take different shape with your creativity. Another good thing is that you can use it on almost any kind of surface.

You can make different color to make things more realistic and attractive. If I talk about a traditional pen or pencil, then it lets me draw in 3 dimensions only.

But with the help of a 3d pen, you can draw and make things in 3 dimensions as well. It gives a realistic or live feeling to your artwork and 3d drawing.

The second thing is that you can use it to join or fix any already published 3d pen or printer drawing. So you don’t need to manufacture the whole product again and again. You just need to make that part only.

The third thing is that it can be useful to you in your presentation.

I hope you agree with me when I tell you that your presentation or proposal will look damn attractive and powerful if you do with a 3d physical object.

Wouldn’t you?

Although 3d printing technology is a new concept in the market, the market has a good competition for it. You will find hundreds of choices for a single type.

Types of a 3d pen

These are mainly of two types viz. Plastic pen and ink pen. Both are good pens depending on the circumstances.

Plastic Filament 3D Pen

This type of 3d pen uses plastic filament as an ink to it. These 3d pens are easier for testing compares to ink 3d pens. If you are familiar with the hot glue gun then you will find this type similar to the glue gun. By using this pen, you can draw on any surface and in the air. It really helps you to create a real-time 3d object. All you need is a real creative skill. This will unleash all your hidden potential.

Ink Pens

In this type, plastic needs to be melt. This sometimes creates the temperature problem while using. But with the ink types, there is no such problem. These kind of pens are best suitable for young people especially kids. If your kids or younger loves to use 3d technology, Then you should look for these kinds of 3d pens for them.

Working Mechanism for a 3d Printing Pen

I want to make you clear that 3d pen is nowhere related to a 3d printer. Although there is a similarity, we cannot treat these two things as one.

Similar is that both uses the heating concept in them.

In a 3d printer, software guides towards making 3-dimensional objects and in the case of a 3d pen we guide it by our hand.

Plastic Filaments

Concept Behind 3d Pen

As I told you earlier, these pens use plastic or lead for its inking purpose. First of all, insert the plastic filament at the one end. In these pens, there is technology which instantly heats up the plastic material and liquidity it enough to take any shape.

Furthermore, it also makes sure that the liquid plastic gets cooled immediately (in a couple of seconds) so that it can hold the form you have functioned it into.

the 3d pen works on almost all the surfaces. So, you will not face any difficulty whether you are inside an open room or in a closed room.

Awesome!! Is not it.

Well, don’t be too shocked because we have watched amazing technology in the earlier too. Like the glue gun, which operates on the same concept.

The 3d pen has the different variant and comes with the different color option.

It’s the must-have tool for you if you are looking to unleash your creativity and your artistic skills.

If I talk about plastic filament and design then there are lots of models available in the market. New models are having different look than the old 3d printing pen models. Especially lix 3d printing has revolutionized the look of 3d printing pens. And if we talk about 3Doodler then it used plastic filament ABS and PLA. You can know more about the difference here. This makes 3Doodler work in the open air as well.

Main Motto behind 3d printing pens

There was only one motto behind all this technology i.e. to efficiently make 3d Objects in real time.

Although 3d printing printers have sometimes on the market now if I talk about 3d printing pen then they don’t have a long history. There are a lot of things that can be possible with these pens. Like it can be used as a welding of plastic.

But most of its manufacture doesn’t list this on their sites. The reason is pretty simple, they have not done testing it. Or in another word, I can say that things are not optimized to keep the welding work in mind.

Lix was the first project who started funding before the actual production on the Kickstarter site. 3Doodler has also given notable contribution in printing pen world. Being the first 3d printing printer in the world, it has done its full effort to bring 3d printing technology in manual control. There are many other projects going on in this sector. One of such is Lix tiny project which is in the construction mode from the years now.

Till now I can see only 2 notable improvements in the 3d printing pen world. One is the first one, plastic filament and the other is a cool ink pen. These are only two but seeing such shortage of 3d printing technology, things can be understandable. As we know

Better things take time to happen.

3D plastic pen vs. Cool Ink Pen

There are currently two companies which have a significant share of the market. These are 3Doodler and Scribbler. 3Doodler is the best 3d printing pen in the UK currently. Both use plastic filament as an ink supply to the pens. Heating was the biggest problem which every 3d pen suffered In the September 2015, CreoPop 3d printing pen came into the market with the cool ink pen. It has literally taken all the big giants into a surprise by its polymer technology. Because of the no heating problem in CreoPop, we can also give them to kids.

Before CreoPop, the manufacturer didn’t provide the draw in the air options to its users. People were only able to draw on the horizontal surface. But when CreoPop came into the market then it provided the user with a choice of a draw in open air. CreoPop usesUV technology to make air drawing possible.

You can go for plastic filament ink or go for polymer cool ink, it totally depends upon your need. If you are looking to experience these pens then I would like to recommend you to 3d plastic pens. And if you are looking for long hour projects then cool ink 3d pens are your top choice.

Additional Features

Drawing 3d objects in real time is the primary function of these pens. But if you are looking to jump into 3d printing world then you need to have some additional feature in the product. Same applies to the customers.

If I want to buy a 3d printing pen then I would look for some other attractive features which company is providing with basic functionalities. I would like to mention some points here which we felt that they give the edge to any 3d printing pen.

Things You Should Look for in a 3d Printing pen

Point 1: Large inbuilt LCD screen for increasing user-friendliness.

Point 2: Filament jamming detection system would be a significant advantage. Because what happens is that we tried to draw objects continuously with it, but nothing happens. So this feature will explicitly tell the user that there is jam detected in the filament and you are supposed to look at it.

Point 3: Standby mode would be another big thing. Some 3d pens are currently providing this feature. This is the feature which I think every related company should implement in their product.

Point 4: Heating control can be provided. If I am buying a 3d pen then definitely I will look forward to the heating issue because this is a sector where most of the pen lacks. As we have seen, the thermal problem can be overcome by extrusion control and cool ink. There can be other options which we can implement.

Type of control: If any 3d printing pen is providing more control over the pen then it’s definitely a great thing. It not only controls the speed of 3d printing drawing but also lessens the unnecessary flow of the ink. It also gives the user control over operating temperature. More control also enhances the experience.

Design: A modern sleek design of the 3d pen is today’s need. 3d printing companies are finding it hard to deliver look at the quality. Lix even promised to make tiny 3d pen but this project is under construction for years. I doubt if it even sees the sunlight one day. One has to have good hand control over a 3d printing pen but seeing the current scenario I only see a handful of 3d pens which meets this demand. The flow of ink should be continuous and smooth. This also comes under design because if there is an unintended mistake in the design then you cannot make a great 3d pen. Also one should also look for the weight thing too. If you are having the hard time to handle it for a long time then there a serious problem. An appropriate and convenient design is what people look for.

Filament type: Filament plays a significant role in the creation of a 3d object. Currently, there are 4 variants for a plastic filament viz. Standard, Composite, Flexible, and Specialty. A filament should be easily replaceable. If it gets stuck inside the pen, then it would create the problem in the long run. So always buy that filament which can be easily replaceable with another filament. Also, try to make a good grip on the pen. Your grip also defines how good your object is going to be.

Brand name: As we know 3Doodler company made the first 3d printer in the world. So naturally, people will prefer to buy the 3d pen from the same brand. You should be an intelligent buyer because it is not necessary that if a product is good for the company then every product will be that good. You should check it from another perspective as well. However, if a 3d pen has a good history then it a positive always. Scribbler also provides the 6-month warranty. That also gives the user an added advantage. Lix is also an innovative company that has also made the company to make a big name for itself. If you are looking to buy a 3d pen then you should note down your requirement and then look for the 3d pen that provides these features. Also, keep an eye on the cons of the product and analyze it.

As a great philosopher once said-

Everyone gonna heart you, you only have to find who deserves your sorrow.

Check Reviews: Have you heard word of mouth advertisement?This is one of the best and cheapest forms of marketing. Recently in the India, Reliance Jio, A telemarketing company successfully implemented this strategy for the promotion of their 4G plans. They were able to bag more than 5 M customers even before the launch. This clearly shows how effective word of mouth advertisement can be. However, if you are looking for the same in case of 3d printing pen then, in my opinion, you will not get the honest and actual reviews.

As we know 3d printing pens are new to this world. Like it is advisable to not to go for the soyan 3d pen. Because there has been a lot of issue people are facing. You can find people searching for soyan 3d pen troubleshooting every other day. So knowledge about these pens and their facility are limited to some persons. You may or may not get the honest review by this. So my suggestion for you to go for some internet reviews across different sites. Make sure these reviews are thoroughly tested. In this way, you can get some good knowledge about any 3d pen. You can also go to Youtube reviews.

Frequently Asked Question related to 3d printing pen

Here are some often asked query regarding 3d pens

#1 When was the first 3D printing pen made?

Peter Dilworth, Maxwell Bogue, and Daniel Cowen from WobbleWorks, Inc., formerly known as WobbleWorks LLC made the first prototype of the first 3D printing pen in the year of 2012. Then they kickstarted a campaign for the mass production of the pen. Then in the coming years, they made 3D Doodler, which is the first known 3D printing pen.

#2 Is it safe enough to leave the pen with a child?

The pen is safe but the minimum age for handling it independently is above 14 years. So, the child must not be left alone with the pen because the heated plastic coming out of the nozzle of the pen has very high temperature and may burn the surface of the skin of the child’s body part if the part comes since contact with the material of the pen accidentally.

#3 Does the 3d pen require any kind of maintenance?

The 3D printing pen is actually maintenance free but it needs maintenance sometimes because the nozzle gets blocked due to leaving of plastic in the pen. The pen may get jammed due to this problem and one has to solve it to fast in order to maintain the lifetime of the pen.

#4 What materials can be used as a filament for the 3D printing pen?

The materials are PLA and ABS. These materials must be used strictly as the filament for the pen as other materials may harm the quality of the pen and the user may not enjoy the warranty period after that.

#5 Can anyone use any other plastic strands with a particular 3d pen?

Any type of plastic strands can be used for the 3D printing pen but by using that, one may surpass the limitations of the warranty of the pen as the plastic may cause damage to the pen. Only filaments which are advised should only be used.

#6 How strong will be the created products?

The strength of the products will totally depend upon the user as the strength is depending upon the material of the product and the structure of the product which the user has made to produce it.

#7 Can the products be painted?

Yes, the products can be painted once the products are solidified and are ready for use. The spray paints of acrylic paints will hold good for these works. The paints should be used which are adhesive to the materials used for making the products.

#8 What colors can be used for the 3D printing technology?

A good variety of colors can be used as the filament for the pen as the strands come in various colors for the user to doodle according to their imagination.

#9 How long can the 3D printing pen be used at a stretch?

Like any other device, it also needs a break. Since the pen is utilizing and working at a very high temperature, it is generally advised to give 30 mins break after a long-term use of about 2 hours.

#10 Do the 3D printing pen emit any harmful gases?

The pen is totally free from emission of any kind of harmful gases. Moreover, the Eco-plastic which the pen uses is eco-friendly in nature and the makers even advise to keep a pot filled with soil and test the product because the plastic breaks down within 45 days from the day after it comes in contact with the soil.

Conclusion – Wrapping it up

If you are looking for a small level projects or some artwork that can be made manually then 3d printing pen is the best choice for you. It is somewhat different than 3d printing printer in terms of the control provided. So if you have a complex task then I would recommend you to for 3d printer rather than 3d printing pens.

If you are looking for school level project then I don’t think there can be an any better option than 3d pens.

You can always go for a 3d printer, but it will be a lot of investment for you. If things can work with a 3d printer pen, then I don’t think there should be any problem. The future of 3d printing is really bright. However, I would still recommend going to a 3d printer if the project is being done on a large scale.

Lix used to be a great choice for all 3d printing technology lovers.
But things has now changed too much.
Lix has jailed himself in lot of issue which they are unable to solve even after 2 years.
I am afraid if people will opt for it now.
I would better suggest people to buy Genesis 3d pen.
It has reasonable price and work like a charm.

If the pen worked you are lucky. Mine broke within 10 minutes of my first use, shipped it off and exchanged, and the second one also broke during the first use. The first one was the problem with power and second one was clogged filament.
